so the tune is downloaded as one file, but is tiered based off of which slot you load the map to? i have the tune, but naturally, without knowing, i just put it in slot 1. i’m only hitting 17psi, but the top end pull is still better than the basemap

Yes one file. Yes tiered off. Flash your car first. Forget about slots. Tiering is controllable by holding down cruise control for 3 seconds and letting go. Then you press the arrow keys and you will see the tachometer raise or drop depending which direction you are pressing. Once your tach hovers on 3k rpm (3rd tier map), hit cruise control to apply. Now when you are in sport mode, you will hit 25psi because you have just selected map3. I don't understand what is so difficult. The videos and directions made this crystal clear.

Here's a video on how to do it.

Map 1: Factory boost levels and turbocharger response.
Map 2: 19psi normal, 21psi "Sport" mode, Improved Turbocharger Response II
Map 3: 19psi normal, custom boost level "Sport" mode, Improved Turbocharger Response II

Nothing is difficult about it. I had no idea that 3 presets could be loaded onto one tune file. I’m a hands on learner, so as soon as i posted my comment, i grabbed my ktuner, went to the car and started messing with it.

Well I actually had a hard time with this also. Granted, it was my first time tuning. I was also pretty nervous about it. Have no help if I would have screwed something up. For a newbie like myself, going in and fucksing with the ECU was rather terrifying to me. Now that I know what I know, it's nothing. Not cool to hate when people have questions man. That's one of the main reasons I use this forum.

it wasn’t even a stupid question. i read through plenty of pages before asking. I come from Cobb Accessports, so there was no “otf map switching”, and the other maps that i have don’t have that feature

Well, I'm nearly 5 months to the day running TSP Stage 1. I had then put the 'hot' tune in slot 1, so it the the default tune and I don't have to do any OTF switching to get to it. Car has the OEM summer tires and has the PRL stage 1 drop-in filter that's supposed to be good for a few horsepower and that silicoln tube but is otherwise stock.

No issues. No clutch slip. As the weather has gotten a bit colder here in SE GA, being in the 40-60s regularly, the car has more power in gears 1 and 2 than my tires can provide traction for. A lot of fun and enough power that I've been content not to do any more since flashing. For a sub-3000 lb FWD car, it feels like it's about as much power as it can use within the limits of it's traction on its present rubber below highway speeds.

Highly recommended.

Has there been any word on what to do with the TSP stage 1 and the ac/software update?

I know flashing back after the update will undo the update from Honda.
